Were the Pistons also offered 4 first round picks by Boston

The Celtics reportedly offered four first-round picks for the ninth pick in the draft.
Whew. That's quite a boatload of picks. The Celtics had the 16th and 28th picks from Thursday, and they also have four first round picks next season -- most are protected, though. Clearly, the Hornets really, really wanted Frank Kaminsky.

This could have been what SVG was talking about in the huddle

Happily would have taken that. Drafted Justin Anderson Or traded up for Pubre.

Not all first round picks are created equal. Some they look like mid first or can even convey to two seconds. I'd have needed 16, 28 as well as the Dallas or Brooklyn 2016 at a minimum.

The offer isn't that great . I think they offered smart with multiple first .

Detroit vs Everybody

I'd have been big time %$#@ed if we got 16 and Oubre went 15. :lol:

No way I would do that trade. Who would we take Justin Anderson? Sam Dekker? And who else? RJ Hunter? Pass. I'll take SJ. Unless there was a chance to land Booker or maybe Oubre (I'm really not a fan of his) then no way. We'll have plenty of draft picks in the 16+ range in coming years and we'll be wishing we had a shot at guys in the top 10. Not enough value that late for me.

Vince Ellis reported that Pistons got a trade offer so good while he was on the clock for 8, that him and Bowers had to step away to discuss. Wouldn't shock me if it was Boston's 6 pick offer. I wouldve taken to the deal

16- SG Rashad Vaughn
28- PF Kevon Looney

I think perhaps SVG and Co didn't workout guys who would be available later in the draft since we had a top 10 pick. That Nets pick is likely top 10 next year

I'm pretty sure they did. I can't recall the entire list, but I know they worked out 51 players and Looney and Dekker were both in for a workout, dont know for sure about Vaughn.
